Diverse car collection auction - Springfield, MI - June 15

In reply to chandler :

I had already checked. Rock Auto has no listing for Biter. 

So cool but even the popular parts are Opel (not that popular round here) 

Of course, what a cool LS swap it would make

You want to ride out there with us?

Look at this freak:Sesco Ford with Gurnee Eagle 4 cylinder flathead motor- half Flathead V8

I definitely put bids on way too many Peugeots.

Then we shall wish you a moderate amount of good luck. 

I have transport and storage lined up if i win one of the interceptors

This probably would be of interest to you, then.

Check it out LIVE! Some of the online pre-bids are pretty amazing.

Did any GRMr's go? Will Pat get the Interceptor of his dreams (or his nightmares)?

I have been outbid on both interceptors that i pre-bid.  That’s ok, I really need a bigger garage before more cars.  

Just checked the Alfa GT Jr- $5500.  

interesting- back in 2005, I was basing almost the same car on an Ebay sale of a GT Jr in the exact same shape- and it was sold for $325.  Back when it was more realistic to have a Challenge Alfa coupe.

But I wonder how much value people are putting into the "collection" aspect of this.  

Still, I have 100% hope that every single vehicle sees the road at some point.  That would be super cool.

I’m logged in with a live bid button somebody stop me

Don't do it. You need a Power Tour ready car. Not another project.

Good day to buy a Maserati if you're into that sort of thing...

I had high bid on one and they passed on it?  Wtf

In reply to Patrick :

You need a Maserati like I need more nerve damage.

In reply to hobiercr :

I bid on the black 87 425i Sedan. Unfortunately it went above my already too high bid. Did get some Flathead Ford V8 exhaust manifolds. Thanks for posting this. 

Highest value lot was for 2 Rebuilt V8 flathead motors with Ardun heads @ $92,000!

Linky. No clue why these are so valuable

2nd highest was a 1995 Ferrari 465 GT Coupe @ $63,500

3rd was the '62 Corvette @ $51,000 which seems low as it was a 350hp, 4spd w/ 23K on the ODO.

Ohhhh the rare self burn.

i “won” a peugeot wagon for $110, but they passed.  It’s probably worth $110.

In reply to Patrick :

I thought the '77 504 Wagon for $1500 was a good buy. Never seen one in the flesh. Be the only one in your 4 state area with one that you can't find parts for. 

I'm sure they want to move the unsold cars so you may be getting a call.

I really want a bitter but I couldn’t bring myself to spend that. I thought the Jensen’s went well under value. 

Zora Arkus Duntov, the Corvette's father, built those heads. Not many were made, even fewer left.
